Lets's calculate LCM of 983,4162
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4091246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4091246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5684/983,9962/4162 is 2/4091246
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 983,4162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(983,4162) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(983,4162) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(983,4162) = ( 983 × 4162 ) / 1
LCM(983,4162) = 4091246 / 1
LCM(983,4162) = 4091246
